Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 8 oz thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak
  • 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 cup sliced onions
  • 6 oz provolone cheese, sliced

Binding and Seasoning

  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or almond flour for gluten-free)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak and Vegetables: Thinly slice the ribeye or sirloin steak into bite-sized strips. Heat a pan over medium-high heat and quickly sauté the steak for about 2 minutes per side until just browned. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, add sliced bell peppers and onions, cooking slowly until tender and caramelized, enhancing their sweetness.
  2. Mix the Meatloaf Base: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs (or almond flour), egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Gently mix by hand until just combined to avoid compacting the meat, which ensures a tender meatloaf.
  3. Assemble the Meatloaf: Fold the sautéed vegetables and cooked steak pieces into the meat mixture evenly. Press half of this mixture into a loaf shape on a parchment-lined baking sheet or loaf pan. Layer a generous amount of provolone cheese on top, then cover with the remaining meat mixture, sealing and shaping it neatly.
  4. Bake Until Perfect: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the meatloaf for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). In the last 10 minutes, add a few extra provolone slices on top for a melty, golden finish.
  5. Rest and Serve: Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes to retain juices and ease slicing. Slice, serve hot, and enjoy the classic cheesesteak flavor in every bite.

Notes

  • Use ribeye or sirloin for tender, flavorful steak chunks inside the meatloaf.
  • Do not overmix the meat mixture to maintain a soft texture.
  • Slowly sauté peppers and onions to bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Let the meatloaf rest after baking to keep it juicy and prevent crumbling.
  • Add provolone cheese towards the end of baking for the perfect gooey topping.
